you familiar with this ?
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Pretty sure "grab that pile of anonymous bits" isnt a proper description ;)
- bagacrap 8y agoHow do you expect a group of politicians from the 18th century to weigh in on the acceptability of this type of warrant? Even politicians from this century don't understand technology.
- geggam 8y agoHow do you invalidate a legal concept like "define that which you want to seize" because old people founded the nation ? The old coots dont have to know how to define it. The modern police do and I want the phone records for those several thousand people doesnt cut it
- UncleEntity 8y ago> How do you expect a group of politicians from the 18th century to weigh in on the acceptability of this type of warrant? Because they lived through a time when blanket warrants were common and decided that they were not to be allowed in this new political framework? --edit-- err, "general warrant" is what I meant to say...
